Scrappile Posted September 20, 2018 Report Share Posted September 20, 2018 I just ran across this product this morning. I'm wondering if anyone has tried using it. I haven't read all the info so I do not know if there is an advantage to it over BB or the Hardboard. I do not know how it compares cost wise. I do not know if it can be glued... Need to read more. https://ezcarving.com/product/14-ezboard-scrollsawing-ornaments-and-more/ OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmmcrafts Posted September 20, 2018 Report Share Posted September 20, 2018 Looks like foam board to me... like the thin sheets of insulation. .. doesn't look like it'd be anything I'd use myself.. interesting to learn more about it.. hope someone has some knowledge about it that can share OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted September 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2018 It could be. I learned about it on a carving forum. Urethane, is that what high density foam is? From the look I was thinking for things like Alex Fox's neat patterns. I did figure that a 12" x 12" piece is a little more than BB. "EZboard is a high-density urethane (HDU) material produced in sheets of varying thickness and densities. There are several manufacturers of HDU. I found out that not all HDU is the same. Some are grittier and more porous than others. I carved on HDU with densities from 10 all the way up to 40. Basswood has a density in the 20-37 lb/cubic foot range. A piece of HDU board has the same density on the front, back, edges and ends! Every part is the same density so the entire piece can be carved! I found 15 lb density to be the overall best for a wide variety of carving." OCtoolguy and kmmcrafts 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsN Posted September 21, 2018 Report Share Posted September 21, 2018 I have some that I got to practice chip carving. I used my scroll saw to cut it into pieces. If you tried to make a project I think you would find that it cuts too easily. A little nudge in the wrong direction makes a big cut. It is a nice green color, so anything you make would have to be painted. Scrappile and WayneMahler 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
